Quiet lake stay

It’s so unusual to have a quiet stay on a lake. We loved that. The house was perfect for our group. It was well stacked with necessities and kitchen supplies. The yard was well kept. The kids played on the beach every day. The only downside was that we could not put our jet skis in due to the number of weeds. There was a small swimming area that was weed free but the lake at that end is weedy. We did use the landing across the street to put in the jet skis. It is very close and easily accessible. We used the kayaks, canoe and numerous beach toys.

This property was just as beautiful as the photos. The cabin was spacious and welcoming. It was our first vacation with our grandkids and it was everything we were hoping for. The kids loved the private sandy beach, all the outdoor toys, large campfire space, and the paddle boat & kayaks.

We had an amazing time!! We loved having the private beach and our kids thought it was great!! We took full advantage of the paddle boat, canoe, and kayaks! The cabin itself was spacious and lovely. The kitchen was well-stocked, we loved having a huge dining room table, and the living room couch was sooooooooo comfortable. We loved drinking our coffee and looking out on the lake every morning. Overall, we had a 10/10 experience and would love to come back!!

Wonderful property

We loved this home. The open hang out area and the beach were the highlights. We were two families both with children and had a wonderful time. The home is well equipped with kitchen stuff and lots of room for pantry items. The second fridge was nice for drinks etc. beds were comfortable. Overall we have stayed at several VRBO and this was one of our favorites. We have already booked for next year!

Duck Lake was great!

We enjoyed our weeklong stay at Duck Lake. We were a family of four with grandparents and we had plenty of room and things to do. The house was spacious and clean and very accommodating. We had an issue with the WiFi but the owners were super responsive. Highly recommend this place that’s near Crosslake but not in the crazy mix of giant lake houses. Duck lake was smaller and peaceful, even for 4th of July weekend.

Perfect lake get away

This house was a perfect location for our family vacation. It was spacious for all of us to spread out. And the house was so thoughtfully set up for guests. We truly felt like we were guests in the owner's home. Lots of kitchen supplies, storage containers for leftovers, spices. They even had bug spray, fly swatters, and a cooler if we needed to use it. The lake was so serene and the beach was relaxing. If a family has little kids there would be no fighting over beach toys-they have tons! Would go there again in a heartbeat.

Another Great Summer Get-Away at Duck Lake

For the 2nd year in a row, we traveled to Duck Lake for our summer vacation. And just like last year, great all the way around. 1. AJ and Amanda (owners) are awesome. They communicate and they care about your trip! 2. Pictures are a perfect representation of the property. Plenty of space for families and kids. Clean and well stocked for cooking, family night movies/games, etc. 3. Location is awesome. You have your own beach area, part of the lake, firepit, deck overlooking the lake, grill, and yard area to play. Plenty of toys for kids and adults, both in and out of the water. Plus, you are literally 10 minutes to the grocery store, hardware store, gas, boat rental on the Whitefish Chain, golf, shopping, etc. We will certainly be back!

Overall okay experience

The location of the property was very nice. The property itself is in need of maintenance. Trees are dead and hanging over the house, garden rubber barriers are torn up all over and complete trip hazards. The property manager complained about us and cleanliness which we did everything to leave the house nicer than when we arrived. I should have taken pictures when we arrived but anyway I paid an extra fee and am not upset but will not return.

Family Vacation

Property was just as described on small private lake. The beach and sand toys was great for the kids. Lake is relatively shallow and not much luck fishing but ideal for peaceful kayak and paddle boat rides! Easy access to launch boat onto cross lake if you want a bigger lake. House comfortably fit our 3 family’s and kitchen had everything we needed.

Great Family Getaway - Definitely Book Again

This was a perfect vacation spot for family with younger kids. We had 6 adults and 6 kids (ages 3-9) and had plenty of room. Sandy beach and sand toys were a big hit. The water fan kept the weeds out of the swimming area. The 5 year olds could stand at the end of the dock so great for jumping off. Enjoyed fishing off the dock for small fish. Great campfire area. Close to town for ice cream treats. Loved being able to walk out the back door and down to the beach, very convenient for running back and forth. Cabin was clean and had great selection of dishes and utensils. Great to have access to a second refrigerator. Beds are super comfy. Really enjoyed the paved walking path in the area for an early morning run. Would definitely book again!!

Family Vacation

We just got done staying at this property and we loved it! We had three kiddos with us ages 1-7 and 7 adults! We had a great time! The space is perfect for family meals, bonfires, yard games, ample parking, tons of beach toys and life jackets and all you needed in a kitchen! They left us a cute gift basket with little items you might need or want on vacation which is very thoughtful! The owners were easy to get a hold of helped with anything we needed. We rented a boat on cross lake and launch was literally 1 minute away. Spent some time in Nisswa shopping, boys were golfing at Deacons Lodge and the Classic, we went to pelican lake as well. Property details - the beds are comfortable and more than enough space for sleeping! The living room is perfect for the kids movies nights and all of us to hang out, kitchen and dining area were awesome and had everything you needed! Beach area was great for our age range in kids (teens may have wanted a little deeper water and a few less weeds as you got deeper). But our kids had a BLAST! The beach area was a big selling point for us! They keep it clean and up to the end of the dock had few weeds. The kayaks and pedal boat were perfect on the super calm and beautiful lake! Grounds are kept clean and well taken care of. We loved it and would definitely recommend this property!!!

This was a great location for our group of adults and children. We loved having access to the kayaks, the great fire pit, the sandy beach area, and toys for the kids.

Great Place, Good People, Worth It

I am not a lake person, but my wife and kids are......and this place is PERFECT for both. We have already booked it again for next year. 1. The pictures and descriptions are right on....accurate. The whole place is beautiful. 2. The house is great. We didn't need all of the space with just 4, but used it. If you have a larger group, there is plenty of room. The house has everything you need for cooking, playing games, relaxing, etc. It was extremely clean. And having full size washers and dryers is so key with wet clothes each day. The washer is HUGE and did all our clothes easily. Also, the wifi was a great help as I need to do a little work and the access and speed made that easy. Great movie watching with family at night with the big screen downstairs. 3. The lake front is great. Awesome for fishing from the dock, swimming, playing in the sand, hanging out, taking the kayak/paddleboat out onto a medium size lake, etc. Not a great deal of boat traffic, so perfect for kids and fishing. And there is plenty of toys for kids, shovels, pails, boats, etc. for use. Well thought out. 4. Location is near perfection. While feeling completely isolated and away from the world, you are 10 minutes to the grocery store, hardware store, gas, supplies, golf, mini-golf, boat rental on the Whitefish Chain, etc. And if you want to have fun shopping, Breezy Point and Pequot Lakes are just 20 minutes away (great street fairs on the weekend). Another 10 minutes to Nisswa. 5. Hosts - Amanda and AJ are wonderful. We thought we might need gas for the grill....and so we texted them. They responded within minutes with multiple options. When we knew we wanted to come back again, we texted again. Immediate response. Never met them, but by the communication you would love to have them as family or neighbors. Not a single complaint. We will be back again next year.
